LA Times: Houston mayor says daughter was denied driver’s test because she has two moms

The daughter of Houston Mayor Annise Parker was briefly denied the chance to take a driving test this week because her birth certificate and other documentation indicated she has two mothers, the mayor said. …

“Instances like this, especially when they happen to people as prominent and important to our country as Mayor Parker and her family, help Americans understand the indignity and inequality that’s being faced by millions of Americans, and it’s completely unnecessary,” said Gabriel Blau, executive director of the Family Equality Council.
